I know, I know…one of the WORST-PLAYING fighting games EVER, BUT…there’s no doubt in my mind that the POTENTIAL was there (could have been Sega’s Killer Instinct)!
Within the genre, the story, characters, & final boss challenge are (IMO) second to none! The soundtrack was also AMAZINGLY dark & moody (LOVE the Title, Character Biographies, & Eternal Champion themes)! The problem with Eternal Champions was always the gameplay!
After seeing the awesome work Double Helix has done with Killer Instinct (minus Orchid’s face & outfit), I was leaning towards them being THE developer to potentially revive Eternal Champions! BUT…then I thought about how big of a factor the story is in Eternal Champions & what NetherRealm had done with MK9 & Injustice in terms of gameplay, story, & cut scenes & thought…WOW! They can totally capture the essence/lore of Eternal Champions as well!
Anyways, curious to see what you guys think! And if Double Helix or NetherRealm happens to be reading any of this, grab the license! Buy it off of Sega! Whatever! Just revive this classic & show its TRUE potential or do a crossover with KI or MK please! It is my dying/gaming wish! Thank you.
